Landing in Mumbai
The wall of smells hit you like a rainstorm on a sunny day. The difference is immense. An airport that has seen time work on its surface, a generation jump backwards. Here you see no flashy internet cafès or restaurants, here you rather see a little guy selling bottles of water and candybars.
Outside the athmosphere is electric, travel agents trying to find their people and taxies all over. TuTUs or mopeds with a hut on the back... are all over. However the taxi system is more organiced then you mightthink at first glance, inside the airport you actually book your taxi to your destination and the guy just might... drive you straight there...
The commodations is in a rual area of Mumbai known as Chembur, as far as i can tell typical Indian with lots of noise and cars and pollution. NO aircondition which makes sleep a bit hard at night. Thank god for sleeping bags, beds are not what we in Norway would call clean!
So now for a new day and new experiences, met 3 nice girls from Hamburg Germany that i desided to tag along with for time beeing, and as far as i know we are taking a train somewhere! Exiteing!
Well bye for now
